Makes no sense for Merlino to be boss anymore. Especially if this podcast shit pops off for him. He’s gotta know the fbi will never leave him alone. What better way to show your not boss anymore then by starting a pod cast lol

I don’t think Joey wants it

He’ll probably allways get a tribute kickdown but if he’s still official boss he’s asking for more trouble

He’s just the modern version of John Gotti

Personally I grew to like him

I don’t think Joey was La Cosa Nostra …. But he was/is a gangster if that makes sense.

But at the same time - genovese family has partnered with him and he even has been called “the east cost LCN eneterprise boss” or whatever bs that it was called back then….

….. so if he’s official for the West Side…. He must be official

I also think Joey voluntarily step down. Probably knows the family's in the rite position. He's had anuff of the federal cases just passes on the position to someone he respects

I think Joeys still the boss & that he’s using the podcasting thing as a front to make people think he’s done with the life. Joey always struck me as a guy who loves cosa nostra & the power that being a boss brings.

I think from the Rubeo tapes you can gather, Merlino wants and or needs money. He is also very savvy in the street. It seems like he can spot informants from a mile away, most of the time. He is very well known and he has not been caught talking in the Gotti type way.

He's at the point where he's still going to have that power and the same type of lifestyle and money no matter what position he holds though. He doesn't need LCN and any of the formalities
